SIEUR DE SAINT-HILAIRE (1652? - 1740) reputedly served as the anonymous "editor" of this volume that saw 3 editions (1680, 1684, and 1698).
PROVENANCE: WILLARD PARKER (1800–1884) was a surgeon of the United States, for many years a professor at the New York College of Physicians and Surgeons and other schools. He became the private pupil of John C. Warren, the professor of surgery in Harvard, and received his M.D. from Harvard in 1830. In 1839 he became professor of surgery in the New York College of Physicians and Surgeons, which post he resigned after a service of 30 years. In the spring of 1840, appreciating the want of practical demonstration in teaching surgery, and the difficulty in securing cases for illustration in colleges that were unconnected with hospitals, he visited with his students two or three of the city dispensaries, selected interesting cases, and had them taken to the College of Physicians and Surgeons, where the anatomical theatre offered superior advantages for making diagnoses and performing operations before the class. This was the first college clinic in the United States. He organized the New York Academy of Medicine in 1847, of which he was president for many years after 1856. In 1846, with Dr. James R. Wood, he secured the necessary legislation to reorganize the city almshouse into what is now Bellevue Hospital, and was appointed one of its visiting surgeons.
